Paperback: Amazon BN Book
Depository
Book Description:
Japheth the Tainted is on the hunt for a mysterious demon vampire.
But meeting her face-to-face might disarm his warrior spirit—and spark an
unquenchable passion with apocalyptic consequences.
As a fallen angel, Japheth is determined to make his way back to heaven by
staying pure and slaying hellspawn. With a new scourge of vampires unleashed by
a blood-drinking demon, the Prince of Thirst, there’s plenty to be done. But
Japheth is after one vampire in particular—the one they call the Angel Slayer.
Rose Harley never wanted to be a vampire, but the Prince of Thirst can turn
even the kindest soul into a soldier of hell. Feeling abandoned by God, she
stalks the West Village taking revenge on his angels—until she meets her match.
When Japheth and Rose encounter each other, the battle is fierce and charged
with desire. But when they discover a common enemy—the Prince of Thirst
himself—they form a dangerous alliance that could either cost them their eternal
lives, or spark a love more powerful than heaven or hell.
INTERVIEW:
- For people who haven’t heard of
Redemption, make a brief description.
Angels, vampires, sex and violence. Oh, and the
Apocalypse. You'll love it.
- What does your family think of
your works?
They think it's awesome that I'm an author. But
they don't read the books. Paranormal romance is not their thing…
- Do you have specific habits
when you write?
There's usually a lot of procrastinating
involved. But when I finally get around to it, I just sit there and type. For
hours, usually.
- Are you an early bird or night
owl?
Night owl. Mornings are for weird people.
- Where do you get your
inspiration?
I order it from Amazon. Sometimes I download it
from a pirate site, but you get hellish viruses that way, and the bastards
steal your credit card number…
- If you could have coffee with
any character of any book, who would it be and why?
Hannibal Lecter. No, wait… Maybe Tyrion
Lannister from Song of Ice and Fire.
That'd be a fun conversation!
- Name a book you wish you had
written.
Funnily enough, not '50 Shades of Grey'… How about 'A Short History of Time' by
Professor Stephen Hawking? That man has an amazing brain.
- Would you like your book turned
into a movie? Do you have any actors in mind?
See, the problem with this is that there are no
real people who look like my characters. They are trained paranormal romance
protagonists. No one alive is that cool…
- What do you do, besides
writing?
Eh? What is this 'besides writing' of which you
speak? Ha ha… generally I'm writing, or thinking about writing, or doing book
promo. I unwind in front of the TV.
- Do you have any hobbies?
Travel is a big one right now, seeing as we've
moved from Australia to the UK for a couple of years. Plenty of new sights to
see. We can drop in to Paris or Rome or Prague for the weekend. It's pretty
cool :)
- Guilty pleasures?
Chocolate… actually, no. I don't feel guilty
about that at all.
- What are you reading right now?
My own work-in-progress. It’s awesome! Or: It
sucks! depending on the hour…
- Tell us about something crazy
you’ve done.
There was this one time, at band camp…
actually, I went on a brilliant band camp once, to China. We got to climb the
Great Wall and visit the Forbidden City, and eat loads of weird Chinese food.
And the Chinese kids were really cool.
…see how I distracted you there?
- Biggest trouble you faced as a
writer?
This happens after you get published. The self-doubting questions are endless.
What now? How do I make this stick? What should I write next? Have I made the
right choices? Does anyone read all these guest blogs anyway? How come that
rotten book over there is doing so much better than mine? What the hell does
that reviewer mean, 'Erica's book is the worst book ever'? etc.
- How do you react to a bad
review?
Vodka. Ha ha… no. I try not to see bad reviews,
but if it happens, I have a bit of a private sulk and try to move on. My stuff
is dark, dirty, a bit demented. If I pleased everyone, I'd be doin' it wrong.
- Do you review others’ books?
Are you nice or are you mean? :P
Sadly, I don't write reviews anymore. It's just
too much of a minefield for an author. I tweet about books I like, but I don't
post on Amazon or Goodreads or anything like that.
- Do you like singing or dancing?
Does music inspire you?
I am the world's worst dancer. A tolerable
singer, but I'm better at playing instruments. Does it inspire me? Frustrate
me, more like :) a performance art is much harder than writing, where you get
to edit a zillion times before anyone sees it.
- What are your favorite TV
shows?
It varies. At the moment I'm watching Dexter season 7 and Spartacus: War of the Damned. And I can't wait for the new season
of Game of Thrones!
- What thing you wish you could
stop doing and you can’t?
Burying bodies at the bottom of my garden. The
fairies keep complaining about the stink. But hey, I have to do something with those people who give my
books one star. Clearly, they're deluded and dangerous. I'm doing the world a
favor.
- Do you have a nice relationship
with your fans?
I hope so! Come chat with me any time. I'm on
Twitter more often than Facebook, but you should be able to catch me.
- If someone made a movie of your life,
which event MUST be included?
The part where I develop super powers, become a
crime fighter and look totally hot in a tight vinyl suit.
